I apologize for the lack of updates. I have been swamped with work from my day job and family duties. I have some new submissions I will be posting soon. In the meantime
please enjoy this picture of Chelsea.

I got caught up on photo submissions today, lots of new stuff to share. Just check the "Latest Pictures" links on this page.

A visit down to Ohio this past weekend netted new pictures of some of the drive-ins down there.
They can be seen here. Additionally, the site has now
reached 22 million page views! Thanks for visiting and hit the tip jar on the right if you want
to help keep this site going. Even 5-10 bucks helps!

Ron Gross of MichiganDriveIns.com was kind enough to take some nice shots of the re-opening of Onondaga Dragway.
The track owners fought long and hard (and spent lots of their own money) to make this happen so it is great to see the old strip hosting events again.

Their Facebook page is here.
There is a nice article about the strip here.

Me and Ron at MichiganDriveIns.com did a road trip this weekend and found some good stuff. The most interesting of which
was the old Underground Forest tourist attraction which is still standing in Fredric.

I was so inspired I started a new section on Roadside Attractions that I will be adding on to as I get more content.
This will supplement the current Tourist Traps section and allow me to add more detail to select locations.
I also added some new pictures of some drive-ins which you can see here.

The monthly web hosting fees for the site are getting expensive due to the cost of the extra bandwidth I need to purchase. The advertising revenue is nowhere near enough to cover it. Any small donations are very helpful and much appreciated, Thanks.
